If anyone in Australia happens to run an ad that mistakenly has a .com 
instead of a .com.au, will BigPond commit to changing their DNS to "fix" 
the problem? If not, what's so special about this case?

If anyone finds two sites blah.com.au and blah.com, where the .com site has 
content that not everyone might like, will BigPond commit to changing their 
DNS to "fix" the problem? If not, what's so special about this case?

Can I get Bigpond to redirect visitors looking for blah.com to my own 
blah.com.au by *claiming* that blah.com has objectionable content?

Given BigPond's obvious concern about the issue, are they encouraging other 
ISPs to take similar action?

By changing their DNS entries, have BigPond denied their own customers 
access to the US site?

Have BigPond breached any ICANN rules by forging a DNS entry for a domain 
name when they have no authority to do so?
